Chapter 100: Power of Friendship
It was now Friday, October 24, one week before Hollowing.
The rumors about what the academy might do during the celebrations were becoming louder and louder.
A ton of people claiming to have insider knowledge spoke about the wildest things. It was like a competition.
Cyril was curious too but he decided against asking Margaret about it, letting it stay a surprise.
What surprised him was that both Morpho and Tigris had started showing interest in the holiday.
Now they wanted to have a costume for themselves too, which led to some helplessness.

"...Back in my day, everyone knew you should stay masked and solemn that night—lest the spirits come and turn your body into an empty husk!" he droned on and on.
